About
Darts Farm nature reserve, Exeter is a blend of farmland and wetland habitat where rolling fields are dotted with ponds that teem with wildlife. There are flocks of Linnets, Fieldfares and Redwings during the winter, and dragonflies, Skylarks and Kingfishers dart around in the summer. A haven on the outskirts the city, our shop overlooks the Clyst Valley towards RSPB Goosemoor, where we have recreated valuable saltmarsh and mudflat for waterbirds.
Just beyond lies RSPB Bowling Green Marsh, which we manage as a vital roosting place for waterbirds such as Avocets and Black-tailed Godwits around high tide.
